Musgrove's overall numbers aren't great, but he's been solid since coming back from injury. 8.1 IP, 1 ER. 73 pitches his last time out, so you'd guess he's just about stretched out by now.

Light him up, musgrove burns well this time of year.

He'll see the fourth inning from the dugout or clubhouse.

All that'll do, as far as I can see, is force you to spend money on a new TV, whether you want to or not. But whatever floats your boat.

Even if this wasn't the right move for purely effectiveness reasons, Brazoban would be unavailable for most of the
upcoming week anyway on account of the 156* or so pitches it took him just to protect a seven run lead last night
so you could justify the move on that basis alone.



* OK it was really only 36 but, still, that's a shit-ton just to get through one inning and seven batters

Phillies lost. Atlanta tied in the eighth with the Nats.

Arizona winning big in Boston.

These Pads CC unis are really bad. I think even gay people would find them to be too gaudy

Four straight Mets strikeouts. A lot of looking early.

Blackburn is not good.

Butto to the rotation immediately please.

This can’t be a surprise. Blackburn had 7 straight seasons of sub-100 ERA+. He’s a perfect example of a below-average player.

Yeah. I know he’s had some good starts but I don’t see anything about Blackburn that suggests he’s going to be any good going forward.

They need to put Butto in the rotation. They needed to do it weeks ago, but it’s not too late.
